On Edit page, allow importing information from Linkedin, Github #32

Hey, just found this project and it's pretty awesome. This is way better for me than editing a lame, plain old document in Google Drive. I was wondering what you all thought about the following idea:

What if when the user visits the Edit page, there's two extra buttons up top, one to import from LinkedIn and another from Github. You click the one for LinkedIn, authenticate, and immediately your basic information, work history, website, education, and skills get written into the appropriate fields. Importing from Github also helps to import information about your repositories and present them as projects.

This way, a user doesn't have to start from scratch or copy and paste information from other sources.

If you like it, I'd love to build it and submit a pull request.

Great programming. Found you when I thought i'd start hacking at something like this. I want to suggest saving your json to google drive. Does this do this already?

Update: ran into this project looking for someone to take over. http://blog.fastfedora.com/projects/import-json. I would love to help if you can guide. Im new to this.
